Clinical and Biological Characteristics of Hidradenitis Suppurativa

Recruiting
Conditions
Hidradenitis Suppurativa
Registration Number
NCT03967600
Lead Sponsor
University of California, San Francisco
Brief Summary

Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a common and debilitating skin disease that is poorly understood and understudied. As a result, little is known about disease prognosis and few effective treatments exist for this condition. This prospective observational cohort study aims to comprehensively characterize the clinical and biological features of HS. The results of this research will provide a basis for the development of an HS clinical classification system and identification of potential treatments for HS.
